The Team

The Specialized Designs for Women Elite Cycling Team consists of women who are all accomplished both on and off the bike.

Our cycling accomplishments include an Elite team comprised of Category 1, 2 and 3 riders who have consistently placed on the podium in local and regional events, won numerous state titles, placed respectfully in NRC events, as well as riders who have raced successfully on the international level.  We also have a very talented group of Category 4 development riders, who have quickly been able to move through the ranks and race at a higher level with the support of our team.  Our riders cover road, mountain, and multi-sport disciplines; however, our focus as the Specialized Designs for Women Elite Cycling Team is road racing.

Our team is comprised of women from all walks of life, including an executive vice president of human resources, a nurse practitioner, a software programmer, a pharmaceutical saleswoman, a marketing and web content manager, a PhD student in chemistry, a stay at home mother, among others.  We also have among our ranks five professional mountain bike racers and a professional triathlete, all of whom are also skilled on the road.

Our Mission

Our mission as the Specialized Designs for Women Elite Cycling Team is to strive for excellence in our sport by keeping a strong focus on sportsmanship, camaraderie, teamwork and the development of our riders both on and off the bike.

The strength of our team is based on the contribution of each individual’s personal talents and passion for the sport and our mutual desire to work together and grow as a team.

We desire that, through our love of cycling and strong sense of teamwork, we will inspire, encourage and foster future development in women’s cycling.

We also seek to encourage women’s cycling in all forms through our website – www.womensbiketalk.com.

Women’s Bike Talk is the official website of the Specialized Designs for Women Elite Cycling Team.  Our mission for Women’s Bike Talk is to provide a unique forum for women’s cycling issues on the world wide web.  Our posts range from race reports and sponsor product reviews, to discussions about finding the best cycling products for women, bicycle commuting, and much, much more.

Women's Bike Talk

Women’s Bike Talk is intended for female cyclists from all walks of life.  It is more than just a team website, and through it, we hope to speak to issues that impact female cyclists from the professional bike racer, to the beginner, to the weekend warrior, to the dedicated commuter, and everyone in between.
